Kvantisoinnin
Kvantisoinnin, meaning quantization in English, is a fundamental concept in signal processing and digital communications. It refers to the process of mapping a continuous range of values to a finite set of discrete values. In simpler terms, it's like rounding a number to the nearest whole number or to a specific number of decimal places. This is essential when converting analog signals, which have a continuous range of amplitudes, into digital signals, which can only represent a finite number of distinct amplitude levels.
The process of quantization involves dividing the entire range of possible signal amplitudes into a certain
Quantization is an irreversible process, meaning that some information is lost during the conversion from analog
